Day 26

Image
Our route today takes us to the end of the journey, and the end of the land, or Finisterre. More detailed map shown below.  With rain in the forecast we were concerned that we might be wet and cold all day. There was an hour or so that was pretty uncomfortable, with both wind and rain. Then the weather broke to cloudy with occasional light rain, and after about 3 hours, it was dry, so we took off our rain ponchos for the rest of the walk.  We saw a number of others in the rain, but very few for a while when it was dry, then the last 2 miles out to the end were very crowded. Lisa-We are glad to be done and feel like accomplished athletes! It has been the experience of a lifetime! All praise and glory to the Lord for health and strength! Lisa-This is Vákner, a mythological creature dating back to the 1400’s. He is known for terrorizing pilgrims.   Lisa-These are Spanish chestnuts. They look soft and fuzzy, but are hard and prickly, like many of the other plants we encounter...

Day 24 - We reached Santiago!

Image
Our walk into Santiago was crowded, and not much different from the walk yesterday: it was dark at first, and we walked with others all making their way into the city. When reached the cathedral, it was about 10:30 am. There were tours going on, and since it is Sunday, I assume there was mass at various times. Since we don’t follow the Catholic traditions of faith, the cathedral is not a major draw. It is a large stately building, and we did snap some photos in front. We went to the Camino office and got our official certificates of completion. We will revisit that area in a few days when we return to Santiago. Our walk in was relatively short, 13 miles, and since we have some extra days, we are extending our walk to Finisterre, or the end of the world. This point has a lighthouse and has the distinction, according to the internet, of being the lighthouse in Europe which is closest to the United States. Anyway. We walked 12 miles to Negreira, out toward Finisterre, at the end of the la...

Day 19

Image
We walked 25 miles today, elevation of 2,800 feet. Tonight we are staying in another albergue. While it is a shared dorm room so less privacy, we get to meet people and visit. We have 432 miles accumulated so far. A  little rain time early today, and our last bay of Biscay views. In Ribadeo at 2nd breakfast by 9:45, we had 8 miles completed. Walked an hour or so with thunder and dark clouds threatening, but the rain held off. Pressed on by ourselves for most of the day. Stopped at an oasis coffee shop and bought our concha (shells) for our backpacks. Also ran into Toren and Angelica there, and finished our day walking with them. We had a pilgrim dinner at the Albergue Savior. Visited with Paulina for a while. She is originally from Mexico City, now lives in Madrid . Lisa- I love seeing the kitties and animals along the way!   Lisa-Another example of a wash house. Keith scrubbed our socks on a wash stone at the place we’re staying tonight, before putting them in the washer...
